Abstract
A four-wave mixing experiment in a bulk InGaAsP traveling-wave semicon ductor amplifier is reported. The maximum pump-probe detuning is 4.3 T Hz. The equivalent time resolution of 37 fs is high enough to measure with good accuracy the time constant of spectral-hole burning (100 fs in our case). The simultaneous presence of spectral-hole burning and o f an instantaneous, within our time resolution, saturation process is clearly displayed.
